I love horror movie. I enjoy every minute of this movie. If you are a big fan. This a collection you must have.

But still a really good interpretation i mean how can you go wrong with chloe?

Ok ok, maybe the title of my review is a lil unfair. This certainly isnt the best remake out there, but it sure beats all those Michael Bay abominations we've been getting lately. That being said, this remake seems rather unnecessary. Its a fun film, but doesnt really bring anything new to table. Brian DePalma's original was str8 up horror! This felt more like an after school special. I know that at its core, Carrie has always been a coming of age story -- and a WOMEN'S one to be more specific -- but I cant help but feel that this version came off as too much of a chick flick. Maybe its the result of having a female in the director's chair, I dont know. But also Carrie discovering her powers seemed much more stylized here, and they tried to make it look a little too "cool". Instead of the freakshow display that was DePalmas masterpiece. I read another review for this once and they summed it up pretty good so Ill repeat what they said.... "It feels kinda X Men-ish" lol Anyway its a solid film, tightly paced, finely acted. Julianna Moore in ANYTHING just adds an instant credibility and class, so thats always good. Plus Chloe Moretz is a great up and coming actress. Nice job on her part. Although I do believe she was way too beautiful to play such an oddball character. What I most liked about this DVD is that I got it a couple of weeks ago and it was in the front of the store on display with other titles for only $2.99 !!!! CANT BEAT THAT

'Carrie' was just another remake to me at first glance. Director Kimberly Pierce was someone whom I thought would never take on a task such as this, however I now feel that without her professional eye for the camera, this second remake of the Stephen King story (the first being in 2002) fared much better than the more recent remakes and makes for a good watch that you'll most likely forget once you shut it off. The actors in the film do very good work here, with Julianne Moore's Margaret White standing out among the others. Pierce also brings a fresh visual take to the story as well, making for quite a pretty film. Where 'Carrie' falls is that they really don't bring anything new. This is almost the exact same film as the Brian De Palma classic, but with little changes such as the idea of cyberbullying being incorporated within. While this does make the 'mean-girls' of the film much more cruel than the original film, it does little to change the film other than give it a modern coat of paint. Overall, it could've been much much worse, and while that's not saying much I still enjoyed 'Carrie' and it's a much more frequent watch in my remake shelf than others. Worth a rental if you're not sure.

This remake of the original does a decent job. Not as good as original.
